MCCULLOCH The official McCulloch thread

[sawfun]

I have a 250 i rebuilt that turned out that way. Just some pittly stuff here and there and it pulls a 34" bar like a freight train. Had to take it to the wky gtg in 2014 because Mark didnt believe it ran that well.

Super 250 or another larger shortblock under the hood?

 

[heimannm]

Mark didn't believe?... and doesn't remember...must be getting old.

Wiggs in September 2014. You, Joe Taylor, and i had about 50 yellow saws there. Was a good time.

Nope, just a fresh 80cc 250 block.

I still have those two boxes of "Non Mc GTG Parts" I have been trying to give away.

After the 610 saws last week I thought I'd try to organize my boxes of 600 parts so I could actually find things when I needed them. After that I decided to clean up the rest of the 600 Series saws in the attic, some will move to the museum and some will go up for sale.





The 3 610's and an EB42 from last week and a Timber Bear I cleaned up today.

I have a 655 apart for a good cleaning now...



...and a long way to go.

While looking for 600 Series air filters I found these.





Just like the ones that came with the carburetor conversion packages.



If you are interested in trying one on your older 10 Series send me a PM.

Sup Joe? You still working poultry?

That’s correct. Still working in the chicken business

By the way, I cut down probably 30 trees today just one cut and then dragging everything off with the grapple. I’ve got a lot of stops to dig up over the next few days!

 

[heimannm]

Look what I found.

I have been doing the same thing over the last few weeks. Rented a grinder last weekend to take care of a few. Ground 28 stumps in a little over 5 hours. Mix of eastern cedar, oaks, elm, and hickory. Used a small backhoe to dig the rotten stumps out.

I still have those two boxes of "Non Mc GTG Parts" I have been trying to give away.

So my curiosity is piqued. What's in the boxes? LOL

 

[Al Smith]

You can make a 70 cc Mac run but my goodness it's so much easier with a Stihl or Husky .I guess the challenge accounts for something .If it wasn't fun I wouldn't do it .

 

[Al Smith]

That Moped engine gizmo reminds me of a friction drive thing they sold in the early 70's dubbed as "chicken power ?' Mounted to drive the front tire .Rated power output related to a mildly frustrated wet hen .May require some assist with the pedals on a slight incline or head wind ,got about 100 miles per gallon at 22 MPH .Not quite ready for the Bonneville salt flats yet .
